Oh man! The storyline is almost the same as the first one. Don't tell me they are going to end up in telling the whole story as a colored comic strip?

:eek:

[Bigjakkstaffa]

I really dont care, its all about the HKBO action, screw the story :cool:

Yep......I played the first one on Xbox...and thought it was great. I cant wait till this one comes out for the PC.....plenty of action....and some really cool moves. The graphics look wicked!


:cool:

Cant beat it on the PC with the ultimate mod (guns, lots of guns) and all the eye candy turned up :D

Long as there are no stupid jumping levels like when your on that acid trip from hell twice. I hated those levels just because they were an utter waste.

I liked the nightmare sequences me, added a very cinematic and artistic feel to the game IMO, though a little variation to the tortured nightmare obstacle instead of a maze every time would have been nicer

If I wanted to play a mario brothers game, I'd own a gamecube... I buy an fps to run around and shoot people, not play mario brothers without the brother and a whole lot more gore. The story could have been told in another way just as well.

Graphically it looks amazing.. let's hope the gameplay matches it's looks.

I hope theyre getting some input from the guy who made the ultimate mod, because though MP was good on its own, the ultimate mod just propelled it to fantastic level, a ridiculous extension of the armoury, cooler clothes for Max, and some muchneeded adjustment to the bullet time system . It regenerated by itself instead of whan you killed enemies, though this had the undesirable effect of making the game a little easier, it had the big plus of making the game a hulluva lot more cinematic, like one big John Woo HKBO.

Darn, this things got me so excited that ive just watched The Killer again on VHS :cool:

LoL yeah it's definitely one to look forward to. I know I am. I just hope my system can run it.. ( I'm quietly confident though ).
